Costume ideas!

[iLuvMyLilBuns]

I really want to dress my pets up in themed costumes this year for halloween

I have a dog her names Dixie and she's a 5 year old Brittany Spaniel, Charlie he's 8 month old male holland lop rabbit, Lila she's a 17 month old female holland lop rabbit.

Also Lila is prego I'm expecting her to have betweem 2-4 babies. She is due October 1st so the babies would be about 4 weeks old on Haloween My dog is so great with my rabbits, I can leave her in the room with them and she doesn't hurt them wich is great so I would love for her to be dressed up in theme with my buns hehe

Anybody have any cute themed costume ideas for my dog, 2 adult rabbits, and 2-4 baby bunnies?

I need to get my rabbit before halloween. I am planning to dress up my dog and my rabbit. For ideas I was thinking maybe to go ot petco and find a outfit that you think they will wear? I'm clueless for that part. haha

I think Teddy would hate me forever if I tried to dress her up. :rofl: That would be so cute though; if I could put her in a costume I'd put her in this: http://www.petco.com/product/120127/Petco-Banana-Halloween-Dog-Costume.aspx

I saw that costume a while back and just cracked up, I don't know what is so funny about dressing your pet up as a banana but it really, really is. I would wear a gorilla suit and it would be beautiful...

lol! that's awesome! I found a chepo female devil costume at Ross for Shya. Maybe something with a lot of characters like starwars or you could be snow white and everyone can be the dwarfs.

Dress Dixie up as Bo Peep, and the buns as sheep!

 

[iLuvMyLilBuns]

Those are great ideas! I really like the Snow white and the dwarfs or bo peep and the sheep haha Is petco a good place to get costumes?

 

[FallenRabbit]

I went to petsmart today, They has LOTS. Haven't been to petco though..

I found a Snow White costume online but I can't find a dwarf costume. I also really liked the Little Bo Peep idea but I can't find a Bo Peep costume or sheep

If any of you find some of these online I would be very very happy if you sent me the link

Bo peep is easy to do: Buy a toddler dress to fit Dixie, and a little hat. For the sheep: White fleece wrapped around the bunnies.

For the dwarfs: maybe a bandana of a certain color on each? to represent the dwarfs' hats like this: http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0/77/599291-557269_seven_dwarfs_super_large.jpg

So for whichever bun will be Dopey, they get a purple bandana, etc etc.

Instead of spending a lot of money on expensive costumes try using doll or teddy bear clothing. I got a angel dress for free at a thrift store and altered it to fit. I'll try posting a picture.

Here we go:
I cut it to fit like a vest.

btw, the trick to embedding the pic is to click the reply button rather than using the quick reply box... on the top toolbar, the second button from the right is the img icon - just click it and copy/paste the link to get the picture to show up

very cute costume, btw! here's your pic of it:

I know we were thinking of putting our two dogs, bunny, and human baby niece in Star Wars themed outfits. You could try that.

We've seen some great ones here, but, I wouldn't want to wrestle any of mine into one.

Thanks for all the great ideas I've decided to take CosmosMomma's idea. I'm going to buy Dixie this Snow White costume: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002HI7IVW/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20
And then for the little bunnies I will get different colored bandandas. Great idea! If anybody has any input or other great ideas they would like to suggest leave them on here! I won't be ordering the costumes until the babies are born. Thanks everyone!

I haven't ordered yet 'cause petco keeps changing what the online sale is... currently it's "up to 40% off" and the costumes I want are 15% off, so I'm waiting to see if the sale goes back to "20% off" in the next few days, but here's what I'm gonna try to con my bunnies into wearing:

for gazzles - http://www.petco.com/Shop/Product.aspx?sku=1552090

for Nala (they didn't have any lion costumes ) - http://www.petco.com/Shop/Product.aspx?sku=1551493

 

[CosmosMomma]

Awe how fitting! Nala is a little monster (in a good way) and Gazzles is an angel! (though I'm sure they switch roles every now and then)

 

[Imbrium]

yes, Gaz has a way of learning Nala's bad habits >.
